Permadeath Mode

We've seen your platinum trophies, but how about a real challenge?

Introducing Permadeath Mode: Play the game with only one life and no second chances!

You read that right; when you die with this game modifier applied, you must start a new game.

Here are some first tips to survive this menace of a challenge:

  • Be sure to use the Wak-Wak tree as often as you can to restore your health and change out your amulets as needed

  • Make sure to upgrade your gear and buy as many health potions as you can you never know when you'll need them

  • Head off the main path and find the soma tree petals to increase your health bar

To enable Permadeath Mode just start a new game, and you will see the option!

If you succeed in beating the game with this mode enabled, not only will you have earned massive amounts of respect from our development team, but you'll also receive a brilliant outfit. If you are up for an extra challenge, try beating the game on Immortal difficulty in Permadeath Mode, and yet another outfit awaits you.

Speedrun Mode

Want to test your running skills and see how quickly you can beat the game?

Introducing Speedrun Mode: race against time to beat your own records and keep track of your best attempts at completing the game as quickly as possible.

Fariba's Hints

You can now purchase Treasure Maps from Fariba, in the Haven, with time Crystals. Each treasure map purchased adds the location of all chests in a previously visited area on your Eye of the Wanderer map. To purchase a treasure map, you must first own the specific map of the relevant area.

  • After finishing the main story of the game, a special map can be purchased to Fariba: it unveils all the Lore items that remain to be found in the game, throughout Mount Qaf.
